Hard Truth Distilling Co. Double Oaked Sweet Mash Bourbon hails from Indiana, where small-batch craftsmanship meets bold innovation. This 28-barrel expression begins with their signature Sweet Mash Bourbon and undergoes a second aging in new, charred American oak barrels for over a year, creating a burnished copper pour with depth and character. The aroma opens with rich caramel and vanilla, leading to subtle apple, tobacco, and hints of leather, inviting the senses into a layered experience.

On the palate, sweet maple syrup and oak glide into a delicate smoke that intertwines with fig and tobacco, building into a warm, spice-forward finish that lingers beautifully. Distilled from Hard Truth’s award-winning BW-1 mashbill, this bourbon showcases the full spectrum of small-batch expertise, marrying sweetness, smoke, and complexity in every sip.

Best enjoyed neat or with a splash of water to unlock its full depth, it’s a bourbon that rewards patience and exploration. Double oaked, robust, and irresistibly smooth, it’s perfect for sipping slowly while savoring the nuances that make each barrel unique, a true testament to Florida’s craft bourbon scene.
